Church Masquerade

If you are new in a Christian church, you would see that all the people there are happy. People are happy, smiling and dancing.

When you talk to them, everything seems alright and their lives are doing very well. Everything seems possible to them. Nothing is impossible.

To all my fellow Christians, what kind of mask do you wear?

I dedicate this song to us.

Here are the lyrics if you want to sing along.

Stained Glass MasqueradeBy: Casting Crowns

Is there anyone that failsIs there anyone that fallsAm I the only one in church today feelin' so small

Cause when I take a look aroundEverybody seems so strongI know they'll soon discoverThat I don't belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything's okayIf I make them all believe it, maybe I'll believe it tooSo with a painted grin, I play the part againSo everyone will see me the way that I see them

Are we happy plastic peopleUnder shiny plastic steeplesWith walls around our weaknessAnd smiles to hide our painBut if the invitation's openTo every heart that has been brokenMaybe then we close the curtainOn our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who's been thereAre there any hands to raiseAm I the only one who's tradedIn the altar for a stage

The performance is convincingAnd we know every line by heartOnly when no one is watchingCan we really fall apart

But would it set me freeIf I dared to let you seeThe truth behind the personThat you imagine me to be

Would your arms be openOr would you walk awayWould the love of JesusBe enough to make you stay
